This is the most recent article about the accident that killed my sister. He was formally charged yesterday. The hearing will be monday at 1pm.

What a horrible man. Greedy and without care for those around him.

 It seems that everything that happened that night shows his lack of respect for human life. I hope they convict him and the only daylight he sees again is from his "recess time" in the prison yards! WTF?!?! And he's done this before? It's about time he learned his lesson!

 The maximum penalty for his crimes is 54 months in WA State. This law is a slap in the face to the victim and their families. It is an election year, please write/talk to those running for office about getting this law changed so the penalty fits the crime. Of course this will not help my Meghan but possibly the next family to lose a loved one won't feel the same sting we feel.

 Wow!!!! Only 54 months? And a repeat offender? So then what, he gets out and does it again? That is ridiculous! I haven't lived in WA for 5 years, but if you could post some contact info, I would definitely write some letters. I didn't know Megan, but no family should have to go through what you all are........ Your family is in our prayers!

The 54 months takes into account the three felony charges (vehicular homicide, hit & run and assault). If it were only the vehicular homicide charge it would be even less time. Because his previous conviction was more than five years ago the courts don't even take it into account when sentencing. I am looking into getting contact info for the politicians who can help us get this law changed. Your help writing letters would mean so much to us!!.... Random factoid, but...did you know you can get a longer sentence for peeking up a lady's skirt with a shoe mirror in king county than the sentence for vehicular homicide?

I am sick to my stomach reading this. I can't even begin to imagine what that must feel like to your family and I hope I never will. This sentence is such a cheap way to acknowledge a human life! I can't believe it, I really can't believe it.....I'm so sorry for what your family must be going through. I too would definitely write some letters to protect our community from a$$ wipes like this getting the opportunity to tear through peoples lives like a tornado and then walk on home as if they broke a loitering law or something?! This is CRAZY!
